Ultra Sparkle Snowman
Hi bloggers! I am back to using the Ultra Sparkle Texture paste again! It really does have a lovely sparkly quality to it, perfect for those festive creations!
The finished dimensions are 7" x 7" in size. All for now, Sue x
Very cute card today! Lots of lovely sparkle from the texture paste and the frame you've created looks wonderful. Just love the snowman, reminds me of paper dress up dolls as you can accessorise him to you hearts content :). Debra x
Hi Sue. This is one snazzy well dressed snowguy in his top hat and if he doesn't deserve a snazzy background then who does lol. For some strange reason something tells me that you're quite a fan of ultra sparkle texture paste, so I'm off to watch you put this cute sample together. Hope you have a good day ☺ xxx
Good morning Sue, Such a gorgeous sparkly card today. I love the snowman & the sentiment has a great font. Your glitter paste is certainly sparkly. Yvonne xx
Good morning Sue, Loving the ultra sparkle background which, together with the beautiful snowflake corner, really gives a wonderful frosty look to the card.x
Good Morning Sue. Beautiful card Sue. I love the lacy snowflake border/corner I think it adds a touch of winter luxury. The little snowman is so cute too. Gorgeous sample Sue. Thankyou. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Good morning Sue and everyone This sample is right up my street the cute snowman and the sparkle background are gorgeous and the snowflakes surrounding the focal design are very pretty. Not watched the video yet will do that in a bit Have a lovely day Sue Take care folks Theresa G xx
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fantastic card Sue x I don't have any ultra sparkle paste yet but it looks really good x another thing to add to my ally pally list ! The snowman is so cute and I love how you have framed it with snowflakes x thankyou Sue x Take care everyone x Theresa w in Berks xxx
After seeing the Poinsettia card yesterday I just new that my saved pennies were going on this one, however when I went to order it there was a beautiful frosty snowflake corner right next too it and so I was not sure what to do. Then my hubby saw them and said treat yourself to both and I will give you the difference; and wow today you show that one too. Now I cannot wait to receive them so that I can start making beautiful cards like this with them.
Good Morning Sue and all Fantastic Christmas card this morning . So much detail from the Ultra Sparkle Texture paste to snowflake corners and love the colours. Thank you so much for doing the video. Crafty hugs to all... Wendy
Good morning Sue. I love this card Sue and will order the snowman die this very day. Thank you so much for the video which is like having a one on one class. Have a good day, Marie P.
I have the technology! It was because of this sentiment that I bought the snowball set, and I can still see Matt on Hochanda being the snowman trying to decide whether to put his little stick arms up or down. And finally, I LOVE the snowflake corner. (Also the border.) So you had my number from the start.
Hi Sue, I love your snowman and the snowflake corner frames him beautifully. The background is so sparkly I just want to reach out and touch it. Lovely card for any age.
June Smith - so sorry I missed your birthday yesterday, belated Happy Birthday greetings and I hope you had a lovely day.
Love love love the ultra sparkly paste and that gorgeous cheeky snowman too. I am still trying to talk myself out of 'adopting' him and thanks to todays card, failing miserably. Even though we have a summer Christmas, which is why I go mad for poinsettias, I think he is too cute to leave.
Hi Sue, I cannot stop smiling.The snowman is so cute. Love those pink cheeks, the bow and the hat. Fun card today.Also, love the Ultra Sparkle Texture paste and the snowflake corner. Beautiful.
Hi Sue, Love this cute card. It really is a happy card and I’m sure anyone who sees it will smile. Love the texture paste too - so sparkly. Love and hugs to all, Alison xxx
